Abstract
The goal of this study is to compare the neural correlates of predictive brain mechanisms during high-level social and non-social flexibility tasks, between autistic and non-autistic males and females. The aim is to better understand if autistic individuals differ from non-autistic individuals in their cognitive flexibility according to the social and predictable nature of the stimuli, at a behavioral and neurofunctional level using the functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI). As autistic females usually present a more subtle profile than autistic males, the investigators will also explore if autistic males and females present neurofunctional differences.
